TOS-1 Heavy Flamethrower System is a Soviet 220 mm 30-barrel multiple rocket launcher, capable of using thermobaric warheads, mounted on a T-72 tank chassis.
TOS-1A is the upgrade version of the System. The TOS-1 Heavy Flamethrower was designed to attack enemy fortified positions and lightly armored vehicles and transports, in open terrain in particular.
According to the news reports, TOS-1A units were being deployed during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Several sightings of the system were reported during the invasion. A verified image of a TOS-1A claimed to have been captured by the Ukrainian Army has been widely shared across social media.
